Introducing the AI-EXP32
Overview: AI-EXP32 features
The AI-EXP32 is an expansion device you can use to add up to 32 single-ended analog inputs or 16 differential
analog/thermocouple inputs to compatible hardware, such as USB-2416 Series devices. Each input channel is
software configurable for either voltage or thermocouple. The analog inputs are provided on four rows of
removable screw terminals.
The voltage measurement speed is the same as the connected USB-2416 Series device. When measuring
thermocouples, configure the USB-2416 Series device for differential inputs.
The AI-EXP32 also provides up to 16 additional digital I/O channels. You can independently-configure each
channel for either input or output.
Connect the AI-EXP32 to a USB-2416 Series device with the 37-pin expansion connector. The
AI-EXP32 supports all of the analog/thermocouple input and digital I/O features of the USB-2416 Series
device.
The AI-EXP32 is powered by the USB-2416 Series device.
